Default Non Staggered rims

Anyone have pictures of 3gs with the non staggered 20" set-up? or 19's? Would you guys even recommend doing this? Thanks!

non staggered is more practical and cost effective in the long run but staggered look nicer imho. It fills the rear fender out

Just really trying to avoid any fender mods or rubbing. Love the staggered look though!

I dont think you will have to worry about rubbing if its just dropped on eibach springs. Are the wheels actually made for a 3GS or did you buy them off of a buddy and they were made for another model ???
